See you on Mars

     "Please don't leave me" Oikawa cried reaching his hand in front of him.
     "Sorry but, you're not enough. Maybe if you were a better friend you could've saved me." Iwaizumi said looking off the ledge of the roof. He lifted one leg over and the other followed in pursuit.
    "Please, I promise I'll be a better friend, if you jump I'm jumping with you" Oikawa said walking towards the ledge
    "You're so selfish, I want to kill myself and instead of trying to stop me you're worried about yourself. You know this is why I always call you a Shitty person, you only care about your own sadness, you deserve to jump not me" Iwaizumi snorted
     "What?! I don't want you to die and I don't wanna die either, I want us both to make it out of here alive"
   "So you're not just a shitty person, you're dumb too." Oikawa felt tears well in his eyes which couldn't contain anymore.
   "Please, Iwa Chan" Oikawa said in between sobs "Please don't leave me.... I know I'm a shitty person..... I know girls only like me for my looks, I know everyone hates me..... I know that I'm selfish and I'll never be good enough...., and I know you deserve someone better.....  I'm sorry, please don't jump..... I'll leave you alone and I'll never talk to you again.... I promise."
    "Your voice is so annoying, it's like nails on a chalkboard. I'm glad you understand that you should be better but if I didn't jump you'd feel like a hero, and that isn't true, you're a villian. Just remember that this all is your fault" Iwaizumi said as he jumped off the side of the building. Oikawa called out to hear the plummet of the ace's body.
    Oikawa shot up out of bed and looked around his room and at Iwaizumi's bed. There were sheets so he ran up and started ruffling them around. He pulled back the sheets to reveal him laying in his bed asleep. Iwaizumi opened his eyes and looked at Oikawa
    "What the hell Shittykawa?! Why did you wake me up?!" Iwaizumi whisper shouted. He studied the setter's face and saw he was clearly distressed and relaxed his face in response. "What's wrong?" He asked, sitting up changing his tone. Oikawa stared at him but no words came out. He didn't want to bother Iwaizumi more than he already did.
    "It's nothing, sorry for bothering you" Oikawa said and he walked back to his bed with his head down. Iwaizumi didn't ask what was wrong so he stared at the ceiling as time passed. He wanted to go outside with Oikawa because he could tell something was wrong, yet he wasn't sure what was the matter. He wondered if it was because of yesterday but he didn't want to think about it too much so he laid there with no thoughts in his mind.
   Iwaizumi looked out the window and saw it was still dark and probably still night. It was raining out but Iwaizumi loved the rain. All those days he felt all alone the rain would fill the silence and keep him company, like an ear that was always listening. He talked to the rain about all his frustrations and the rain would be there for him and tell him it was alright.
    He'd often cry with the rain for hours until he'd fall asleep. The rain was the only thing he knew that would stay with him forever, even if it'd go away at times it would always come back. Iwaizumi stood up and rested his hands on the window sill. He opened the window and the boy stuck his hand out the window. He felt the cold autumn rain fall into his hand and trickle down his arm.
    Iwaizumi heard footsteps coming near the door and he quickly laid back in bed. The nurse came through waking people up like she always did, everyone got up for class like they always did, and everyone read that same book like they always did. It felt so repetitive, everyday doing the same thing over and over. Iwaizumi and Oikawa were no longer trusted and didn't get any time to talk things out. Autumn came and went and the red leaves faded leaving the bare brown branch. Life for everyone outside went on like usual, and time didn't slow as much as Oikawa prayed it would. It was December 1st 1942 and he had been in the hospital for 89 days.
